Someone asked: "Everybody says your Reverence has the power to read people's minds. Is it true?"
_
The Master said:
_
"In my school, we don't have such extraordinary things. And even if we did, since the Buddha Mind is unborn, we wouldn't use them.
When I'm speaking to you, I deal with your own selves (1), so you imagine I've got the power to read people's minds. But I haven't any mind-reading powers (2).
_
I'm just the same as all of you.
When you abide in the Unborn, you're at the source of the supernatural powers of all the buddhas, and without even having to seek supernatural power, all things are perfectly managed and smoothly dealt with (3).
In the true teaching of the Unborn, you can manage everything by dealing with your own self (4), without bringing in all sorts of extraneous matters (5)."
-
Just look at people.
-
It doesn't require any special talent or ability, just honesty in describing what you see.
-
Just be real. There are no superpowers.
-
Don't worry about being right or wrong with anyone else. Manage your own shit.
-
No need to make it effortful, or bring in systems of approach of adopted languages. Just gauge based on the impressions of your attentive discrimination and you will be able to authentically manifest what you think and feel of any given situation.
It won't ultimately matter if you are right or wrong , but it will reveal to you and to others what are the goings on within your mind.
